Pentraxin-3 in hemodialysis patients: Relationship to comorbidities

Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2016
Hemodialysis (HD), despite being the most common treatment modality for endstage renal disease (ESRD), still carries a mortality rate higher than 20-50%/year resulting from various comorbidities. The aim of this study was to measure the plasma level of pentraxin-3 (PTX-3) in patients on maintenance HD and to assess its relationships to comorbidities ...

Shared dysregulation of complement and phosphorylation pathways in the cerebrospinal fluid of encephalitis, Aicardi–Goutières syndrome, and autism

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To identify shared and disorder‐specific molecular alterations across encephalitis, Aicardi–Goutières syndrome (AGS), and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) using cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteomics. Method In this cross‐sectional case–control study, mass‐spectrometry‐based proteomics was performed on archived CSF samples collected between ...

Evaluation of serum pentraxin–3 (PTX–3) levels in cats with neoplasia

Revista Científica
Pentraxin–3 is a multifunctional protein implicated in human oncology due to its roles in regulating inflammation, angiogenesis, and tumor progression. However, its potential as a biomarker in feline oncology remains insufficiently investigated.

Antibiotic‐mediated immune modulation in periodontitis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the supporting structures of the teeth. Although initiated by dysbiotic microbial communities, its progression is largely driven by the host's uncontrolled inflammatory response. While antibiotics have conventionally been employed in periodontitis therapy for their antimicrobial ...

The Maternal Blood Transcriptome Reflects Molecular Signatures Associated With Large Offspring Syndrome and Other Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes in Cattle

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 20, 31 October 2026.
Blood samples from pregnant heifers carrying in vitro‐produced embryos were analyzed for RNA‐sequencing to test whether maternal blood transcriptome could be predictive of large offspring syndrome, stillbirth, and abortion compared with controls.

Plasma pentraxin 3 levels in preeclamptic patients

Clinical and Experimental Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2015
The authors evaluated plasma pentraxin 3 (PTX 3) levels in preeclamptic patients and determined the relationship between albuminuria and plasma PTX 3 levels. During a period of one year, 29 patients with severe or mild preeclampsia and 49 healthy pregnant women were included in the cross-sectional study. The two groups were compared each other with PTX

Pentraxin 3(PTX 3): An Endogenous Modulator of the Inflammatory Response [PDF]

Mediators of Inflammation, 2012
Inflammatory or anti-inflammatory? That is the question as far as the acute-phase response and its mediators, the pentraxins, are concerned. Only some ten years ago, the classical or short pentraxin C-reactive protein and the newly discovered long pentraxin PTX3 were considered to exert most of the detrimental effects of acute inflammation, whether ...
